Beat together butter and sugar, in a large mixing bowl, using a mixer on medium speed, until creamy - about 1 minute. Beat in melted chocolate, eggs, vanilla, baking soda, baking powder and salt until well combined - about 2 minutes. Reduce mixer speed to low and beat in cocoa powder and flour until just combined. Chill dough in refrigerator for 1 hour.

Heat oven to 350 degrees F.

Spray your hands with cooking spray. Take a heaping tablespoon of dough and flatten into the palm of your hand; place a mint cookie on top, and wrap dough around cookie. Repeat process with remaining cookies. Place on cookie sheets, spacing about an inch apart. Bake 10-12 minutes, or until set, and slightly crisp. Cool 2 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool.

My youngest told me last night she wanted peppermint cookies so I might make these tomorrow. I love the idea of stuffed cookies and I haven't done any yet so this would be fun to try....plus I think she could help. Great recipe.

I liked Shabby Apple on FB and I also love their Hollywood Hills lace dress...

Adorable apron! (I am too late for the giveaway, I know.) I have always wanted a designer apron like that. Chocolate and mint is the perfect combination to me. If I make one more cookie this season, it will be these. God knows I don't need another one, but these look awesome. :)
